Why the Black Deer is Special
The black deer, also known as a blackbuck or Indian antelope, is usually found in India, Pakistan, and Nepal. Currently, its population has decreased significantly, and it is listed under Schedule 1, which means hunting it is completely prohibited. It is worth mentioning that actor Salman Khan also faced a lot of trouble in the case of hunting black deer. Previously, it was frequently hunted, but now strict laws have been implemented to protect it. The black deer has the ability to change its color. Its color becomes completely black by the end of monsoon. However, in winter, its color starts to fade, and by April, it becomes completely brown.
Declining Population
According to officials from the forest department, around 200 years ago, there were around 4 million black deer in India. In 1947, their population had decreased to around 80,000. By 1970, only 20,000 to 22,000 black deer were left, and by the 2000s, their population had reached 50,000. Apart from this, the black deer also holds religious significance and is worshiped in many places. In Andhra Pradesh, the black deer has been given the status of a state animal, and the Bishnoi community worships the black deer. In Sanskrit, this deer is mentioned as “Krishna Mrig” and is believed to pull the chariot of Lord Krishna in Hindu ancient scriptures.
